Mascoutah Steak House is Rep. Kevin Schmidt’s February business of the month

After receiving submissions from across the 114th District, Rep. Kevin Schmidt (R-Millstadt) has selected Mascoutah Steak House to be his first “Business of the Month.”

Rep. Schmidt presented Mascoutah Steak House with an official certificate to honor their recognition and met with the owner and staff.

“Mascoutah Steak House embodies everything this program was designed to recognize,” said Rep. Schmidt. “This business has been a staple for years and have shown resilience in the face of adversity during the COVID-19 pandemic and other challenges susceptible to the restaurant industry. Throughout its operation, Mascoutah Steak House has employed hundreds of high school and college students, and its employee-first approach reflects some of the longer-tenured employees. It’s a great destination for the whole family and offers a variety of delicious lunch, dinner, and even breakfast on Sundays fit for any budget.”

Mascoutah Steak House is a family-owned and -operated business that has been serving customers in the 114th District for over twelve years. Owner Nicole Vernier can be seen working in the restaurant seven days a week and giving all the props to the success of MSH to her dedicated staff.

The menu boasts daily specials, Sunday breakfast, delicious local selections of steaks, and their bar serves Yuengling beer, along with other drink options.

Rep. Schmidt added, “Illinois is not the friendliest to small-business owners, but Mascoutah Steak House has managed to keep their doors open and continue offering the community great affordable food with a unique environment. This restaurant deserves recognition for their commitment to their customers and staff. I am already looking forward to my next visit. Stop by to support a great local Mascoutah business, and I recommend ordering the ribeye!”

Community organizations enjoy meeting regularly at Mascoutah Steak House. Rotary Club, Mascoutah Athletic Commission, Whitetails Unlimited, Zonta, and Lions are just a few local organizations that regularly hold meetings at the establishment. Other groups looking for meeting locations are encouraged to inquire about availability, as a private meeting room is available.
